Hey, i have a Reference (PCB and Cooler) Asus GTX 570, and it needs a clean.

Is there any way i can clean the cooler out without taking the card apart?
- If i do need to take it apart, do Asus allow this under warrenty?
 
A good few sprays of compressed air usually help clear a good deal of the built-up dust from a graphics card.

A can like this would be a good investment and won't affect your warranty.
 
I use a selection of small artist brushes for cleaning gpu fans, followed by a quick blast of compressed air. Just cleaned an old 8800gt today using this method, worked a treat.
 
Yeah, i have a can of Compressed air, but i was looking for a better clean. I have seen some coolers where you can take the top of the fan shroud off to clean the actual heatsink.

Looking at this picture, im assuming it would be removing the screws around the side. Would this, if anyone knows, void my warrenty?
